法國舊制度時期，巴黎貴族婦女在家宅舉辦私人沙龍聚會是上流社交圈日常的交際應酬。部分沙龍女主人的作品甚至成了文學研究關注的重要對象。本文以隆貝爾侯爵夫人為例，首先檢視學界認為十八世紀後沙龍婦女逐漸淡出文學出版界的主流觀點，再從宮廷政治、貴族團體、以及藉由學術院院士職銜提升社會地位和聲望的文人哲士三方面，分析隆貝爾夫人的社交處境及其作品的出版脈絡。最後，本文分析隆貝爾夫人刻意掩蓋因歧視而撤回書稿之事實，闡釋她在沙龍談話、寫作和出版的知性實踐上，面對性別和出身歧視的因應之道。

This article examines the modes of circulation and publication of literary works written by Madame de Lambert in the eighteenth century through her interpersonal relationships and social networks—the salon. During the French Old Regime, aristocratic women held salons which acted as places of sociability for elites within Parisian society in their own residences. By considering an epistemological viewpoint, this paper first questions the dominant perspective held by historians that the publications of these “salon women” were in decline from the seventeenth to the eighteenth century. In order to analyze the relationship between Madame de Lambert's social circles and the circumstances pertaining to her capacity to publish her works, this article focuses on three elements: shifts in court politics, the changes in aristocratic groups, and the rising social status of men of letters. Finally, considering her refusal to publish her literary works as well as the differing accounts—made by her and others—as to why, one is able to note how Madame de Lambert responded to prejudices relating both to her sex and to her social origins at the time when she accomplished her intellectual self-improvement through practices of salon discussion, writing, and publishing.
